(Clearwisdom.net) On September 27, 2009, practitioners Mr.
Kong Xiangsheng, Mr. Cheng Xiaobao, and Mr. Zhang Yi in Xiangfan,
Hubei Province, were arrested by police in the Domestic Security
Division. They were taken to the 9th team in the Shayang
Forced Labor Camp. Officials there put them in solitary
confinement, torturing them every day. Several of Mr. Kong's teeth
were knocked out. Mr. Cheng's leg was beaten so badly that he
developed a limp, and Mr. Zhang's back was injured.

In the morning on September 30, 2009, someone in charge at the
Hubei Forced Labor Bureau went to the 9th brigade to do
an inspection. Mr. Zhang Yi, who was being held in a solitary cell,
shouted, "Falun Gong is good! Stop persecuting Falun Gong!" His
mouth was taped shut and he was beaten by inmates Tian Yong (from
Yichang), Chen Sandeng (from Xiantao), and others. They used a
small bench to hit him, seriously injuring Mr. Zhang's back. It was
very difficult for him to move, and he hurt all over. Team leader
Wei Peng was there during the entire process.

At around 8 a.m on October 1, 2009, the 9th team held
a flag-raising ceremony. Mr. Kong Xiangsheng and Mr. Zhang shouted,
"Falun Gong is good! Quitting the CCP saves lives! Stop persecuting
Falun Gong!" Mr. Zhang was dragged into a solitary cell, his mouth
was taped shut, and he was beaten severely by inmates Tian Yong,
Chen Sandeng, and Zhou Jiliang (from Shishou). Mr. Kong was beaten
by inmates Qi Kehong (from Yichang), Jin Yucai (from Jingshan), and
Feng Bing (from Dangyang). Inmate Qi Kehong tied Mr. Kong's hands
to the bed frame and poked his hands and body with a needle. He
tied up Mr. Kong's arms, put him under the bed, and made it so that
he could not sit straight. Qi also forced Mr. Kong to squat or
stand for a long time, making his toes turn raw and purple. The
abuse was instigated by officer He Bingrong. Mr. Kong was to be
detained for anther ten days. Since he frequently resisted
persecution, he was taken to a "rescue center" and assaulted with
electric batons. Several of his teeth were knocked out.

Just after October 1, those in charge ordered the practitioners
to write statements that they had been "transformed." When Mr.
Cheng Xiaobao refused, inmates Xiang Wei (from Yi Chang) and Huang
Degang were ordered torture him. They did not allow him to sleep
and kicked him in the legs. Huang Degang then proceeded to stuff
flour dough into Mr. Cheng's mouth and beat him.
